(03) THE SETTING
Forty acres, fourteen tents.
The field after dark — no light pollution, the Milky Way every clear night.
Ember & Oak is a field in the Cotswolds, forty acres of woodland with fourteen tents in it. There is no road through the field, no streetlight and no sound but birdsong and wind. The camp is a fire pit, a wood store and a sky full of stars.
The camp is not a hotel. There is no reception desk, no minibar, no television. There is a stove, a lantern, a path into the woods and a fire that is lit every evening.
Small on purpose
Fourteen tents only. No crowds, no queues, no noise — just the woods and the people who came for them.
Fire included
Every stay includes firewood, a fire pit and someone to light it. You do not need experience, only a willingness to sit.
Honest pricing
The price you see is the price you pay. No resort fees, no surprises at checkout.
(04) YOUR STAY
From arrival to departure.
- 01
Arrive
Check in from 3pm. Tea by the fire, boots off, shoulders down. The woods do the rest.
- 02
Settle
Your tent is ready, the stove is lit and dinner is at 7. Nothing is asked of you tonight.
- 03
Explore
Pick a woodland walk, a cooking session or a doing-nothing day. Guides are on hand, and the trails start at the field.
- 04
Depart
Check out at 11am. Leave the woods a little lighter than you arrived.
(05) GUEST VOICES
“We arrived tired and left rested in a way I did not think was possible in three days. The tent was warm, the fire was lit and nobody hurried us at any point.”
“The kids still talk about the campfire and the foraging walk. It is the first holiday where the whole family actually slowed down.”
David Okafor — Guest, London — The Family Tent“I came alone, walked every day and read by the fire every night. The Solo Tent is exactly as described — small, quiet and perfect.”
